Large adjustable speed drives
designed to
raise your profitability
You would surprised how many industrial
processes can improved using adjust
able speed electric motors. The energy savings
alone drive few megawatts can offset
the cost the speed control system just
months few years.
Maintenance
• Less stress and wear reduces the
maintenance requirement.
• Mean time repair typically hour
Emissions
• Electric drives avoid emissions.
• Substantial energy savings
Reliability
• Mechanical flow control devices as
potential source failures are eliminated.
• «Softer» control reduces wear motor
and driven plant. The larger the
process and the higher the performance
demands, the greater the benefits from
electronic speed control.
Processes and industries
- power plants
- chemicals and petrochemicals
- building materials
- metals
- mining
- research and development
- water and sewage treatment
- marine and offshore
- oil and gas
- pulp and paper
Reasons for using
MEGADRIVE-LCI
Efficiency
• Compressors, fans and pumps run at
their optimum operating point.
(a significant advantage today's world)
• Noise reduced the minimum possible.
Better process control
• greater accuracy
• smooth control low flow rates
• wider range control
• faster response with greater stability
• reduced production waste and higher
quality
• set-points quickly reached and therefore
shorter production times
• renowned reliability and adaptability
Soft starting
• less mechanical stress motor and
driven plant
• minimum repercussions the supply
system
• reduced temperature rise while the motor
is accelerating
• need pony motors and clutches
• starting very large motors and
generators
Typical applications
Speed control and soft starting of
- fans and pumps
- high-speed compressors
- reciprocating compressors
- wind tunnel blowers
- blast furnace blowers
- rolling mills
- extruders
- marine propulsion systems
- test bays
Substantial savings energy
and maintenance costs
Smoother running results in
- higher productivity
- longer plant life
